Dear Zoo Lift-the-Flap - Board Book

Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell – Classic Lift-the-Flap Board Book for Babies, Toddlers & Preschool Children | Interactive Kids Animal Story Book (Board Book)

Introduce little readers to one of the most loved children’s board books with Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell, the classic lift-the-flap preschool story that has entertained generations of babies, toddlers and young children.

In Dear Zoo, a child writes to the zoo asking them to send the perfect pet. The zoo sends a series of animals, but each one has a problem — one is too big, another too tall, another too fierce! Children can lift the flaps to discover which animal is hiding underneath before following the story to its charming conclusion.

With its simple storytelling, colourful illustrations, exciting animal reveals and interactive flaps, Dear Zoo is designed to encourage young children to participate rather than simply listen. The repetitive language also makes it an enjoyable choice for early learning, vocabulary development and parent-child reading time.
